21 Review Summary

Our reviewers had mostly positive things to say about 21 the movie, the film adaptation of “Bringing Down the House” by Ben Mezrich. 21 Stars Jim Sturgess, who plays an MIT math student who gets caught up in a Las Vegas card counting scheme, before the casinos start to catch on. What did our reviewers like about it? The authenticity, for one, appealed to one movie buff who says that 21 “gives you the rush of a Vegas casino.” Another plus was the suspense “I loved this movie” says one infrequent movie goer “It kept me on the edge of my seat. It’s action packed, with one thrilling moment on top of the next.” 21 also stars Kate Bosworth and Kevin Spacey.

Very good movie.  Good cast, good acting, except for the men who worked for the casino-their acting was boring.  Otherwise the movie was full of great action, good twists, paced well, interesting.   Full of surprises.  Worth seeing again.  —… read full review »

I recently saw the movie "21" with my boyfriend (who loves Vegas) and it was suprisingly good. Jim Sturgess is a math genius studying at MIT (and he's gorgeous!) along with 4 other students hoping to win big money on the weekends by going to vegas and counting cards at blackjack. Kate Bosworth does… read full review »

I just watched the movie 21 over this past weekend and it is now one of my favorite movies! This movie is action packed, keeps you on the edge of your seat, and even has a small "love story" in it. The twists in the plot kept me very involved in the movie, which is hard to do with me. It keeps you guessing and wanting to keep trying to figure out what will happen next. 21 tricked me when I was trying to figure out what was going to happen and I love that about a movie! Definantly recommend this movie!!! —… read full review »

Okay, so I dont get to go out to the movies very much. However, I am a hige fan of casino movies.21 was absolutely phenomenonal. I love how it was based on a true story and how they modernized it. The tricks and smarts that the team had were awesome. I couldnt believe people actually got away with that. This film had a few violent scenes so i probably wouldnt recommend to young ones but it wasnt too bad. I recently viewed the movie on dvd and it was just as good. Its definitely a movie worth… read full review »

I have been waiting to watch 21 for a long time and it met my expectations. I remember watching a History Channel special on the MIT Blackjack Team and it really got me excited to watch the movie. We all knew or could imagine that the main character would get caught, but the extra twist at the end really made the movie. The movie provided action, drama, and comedy. Not to mention, it left me asking for more detail about the… read full review »
